Usually in bogs, where its rhizomatous habit makes it a mat-former rivaling in importance C. lasiocarpa, with which it is rather frequently confused when vegetative; relic in older coniferous swamps and also found on wet lake shores, in acidic soils. The narrow, involute leaves are similar to those of C. lasiocarpa, but less wiry, the basal sheaths are much spongier than the hard ones of C. lasiocarpa, and the ventral surface of the lower leaf sheaths do not tear to form a ladder-like arrangement of fibers.
